Patagonia Ascensionist Softshell Jacket - Men's

Patagonia Ascensionist Softshell Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 April 6, 2009

I've worn this jacket around 65 times skiing this winter in Summit County, CO. Plenty of warmth over two thin layers for all but the coldest days. The only weak point in terms of warmth is how thin the jacket is when zipped in front of your face while facing strong winds (I don't wear anything on my face other than Dermatone). But on the other hand, if it was thinner it would lose some of its vast versatility.

Great fit, (I'm 6' 160#s, and wear a large with the hemcord tightened), super mobile, doesn't ride up and breathes well, even during high output activities like skinning and telemarking. Hood is large enough even for my stupidly large head wrapped in a helmet and it sheds (albeit light) snow with ease.

I've checked my sleeves with dismay after catching an arm on a branch at high speeds in the trees, only to find nothing but a slight skid mark. Durability, check. Warmth, check. Fit/comfort, check. Mad style, check. I've gone softshell, and will never go back, and am a converted patagucci lover.
